Vendure Campaign Tracker plugin
Official documentation here
Vendure plugin to track revenue per campaign, so that you can compare different campaigns from different sources. To track campaigns, your storefront should send the unique campaign code to Vendure on a page visit:
- Pass a campaign code in the url, e.g.
my-website.com?ref=summer-sale-ad
. This URL is then included in your ads or email campaigns. - Or, set a fixed campaign code for a landing page. For example, all visits to page
/sale-landing
will get the campaign codesale-landing
Getting started
Add the plugin to your vendure-config.ts
import { CampaignTrackerPlugin, LastInteractionAttribution } from '@pinelab/vendure-plugin-campaign-tracker';
...
plugins: [
CampaignTrackerPlugin.init({
// Pick an attribution model. Choose from `LastInteractionAttribution`, `FirstInteractionAttribution`, `LinearAttribution`
// Or, implement your own by implementing the AttributionModel interface
attributionModel: new LastInteractionAttribution()
}),
AdminUiPlugin.init({
port: 3002,
route: 'admin',
app: compileUiExtensions({
outputPath: path.join(__dirname, '__admin-ui'),
extensions: [
CampaignTrackerPlugin.ui,
... // your other plugin UI extensions
],
}),
}),
... // your other plugins
]
- Run a database migration.
- Rebuild the admin UI
- Start Vendure, and navigate to 'Campaign' (below Promotions)
- Create a campaign, e.g.
my-first-campaign
. - Make sure that every page on your storefront includes the following code:
const url = new URL(window.location.href);
const params = new URLSearchParams(url.search);
const ref = params.get('ref');
const activeOrder = await yourGraphqlClient.query(
gql`
mutation addCampaignToOrder($campaignCode: String!) {
addCampaignToOrder(campaignCode: $campaignCode) {
id
code
total
}
}
`,
{ campaignCode: ref }
);
This will add any visits to your website with ?ref=my-first-campaign
campaign to the order. This mutation will create a new active order if none exists yet.
If my-first-campaign
doesn't exists as campaign in Vendure, the call is ignored and no active order is returned (or created).
